The North Dakota State Bison are going to get the benefit of the doubt at home because this is what they do year after year. North Dakota State is the Alabama of the FCS ranks, and that home crowd this time of year is a massive advantage. With that said, the Incarnate Word Cardinals have steamrolled the competition up to this point, and they’re highly explosive offensively. Incarnate Word has scored no less than 35 points in its last 10 games. Scott Jr. has 9 touchdown passes in his first two playoff games. I can’t leave this many points on the table. Give me the Cardinals.
